Sumatra Tiger Grade 3 Special Green Coffee Beans
Sumatra Tiger Grade 3 Special is an affordable, high-impact Indonesian green coffee blend combining Arabica and Robusta beans sourced from northern Sumatra. Produced using sustainable smallholder practices and traditional wet-hulled (giling basah) and natural processing methods, this blend delivers earthy, chocolatey notes, low acidity and a heavy body — ideal for espresso blends and commercial roasting.
Product Overview
Sumatra Tiger Grade 3 Special is a popular Sumatra blend crafted for roasters seeking deep, full-bodied profiles at competitive prices. Beans are sourced from cooperative smallholders across North Sumatra (Lintong, Mandheling hinterlands and adjacent robusta-producing areas), sorted and blended to provide consistent roast behavior and a classic Indonesian earthy-cocoa cup. Good option for espresso bases and heavy-bodied commercial blends.
